There are no coincidences in politics; there are only people who recognize them, and people who do not.
Yesterday, the biggest fraudulent and heavily managed autocrat in modern American political history gave instructions to his fellow travelers in Big Tech, and I quote:
“I make a special appeal to social media companies and media outlets: Please deal with the misinformation and disinformation that’s on your shows. It has to stop.” ~ Joe Biden
Today, they begin responding:
(The Story of the “Infraction” is Here)
Some may see this as coincidental timing (you would be amazed at the number of people willfully blind to how the system of controlled communication works in the modern era); for the rest of us who accept things as they are – not as we need to pretend them to be, we can see the patterns as they develop. We are engaged in information warfare.
Another important example from today is highlighted below.
“Though Spotify has a responsibility to mitigate the spread of misinformation on its platform, the company presently has no misinformation policy,” the group wrote in the letter, which was first reported by Rolling Stone this week. “Throughout the covid-19 pandemic, Joe Rogan has repeatedly spread misleading and false claims on his podcast, provoking distrust in science and medicine.” (read more)
♦ “History may not always repeat, but it rhymes.” The United States in 2022 is Poland in the early 1980’s under Soviet influence. We the citizens are engaged in an information war against our own government. The difference between then and now is Big Tech and the communications platforms that have been infiltrated by communist agents.
The battle is the same, the battlefield is what’s different.
We are in an abusive relationship with our government.
Accept the nature of the relationship and modify your behavior and communication strategies accordingly.
Know what targeting methods the enemy uses; then, seek to develop strategies that are invisible to the oppressor.
Think like an insurgent.
Put another way,… if the pod under your bed malfunctioned, but the pods under all the other beds in the city worked, what happens when you awaken and realize you are not one of them, but you must engage in the world of them while looking for others -like yourself- whose pods hopefully malfunctioned?
This is the challenge for communication in 2022.
This is what you need to think about as you become a force multiplier.
Eyes of a mouse, ears of an elephant.
UPDATE: Dan Bongino responds to YouTube via Locals
Alright Dan, now, repeat after me ‘Trump won the 2020 election’ and then tell Cumulus to plant a big one on your derrière! You’d have my respect after that . . .
👏🏽
👍🍊🍊🍊🍊
he already had that discussion with Cumulus in case you weren’t aware
I was unaware that Dan had this talk with Cumulus but I have not heard him state Trump won in 2020 on his radio show. I want him to say it loudly and often that Trump won in 2020. So too, I expect nothing less of Mark Levin. Dan and Mark would be powerful voices if they came out together and declared what we all know took place the morning of November 4, 2020.
We must all start saying it loudly and often. Only then will the Main ExTreme Media be put in their rightful place . . . they are propagandist shills for the Democrat Party, nothing more. Human agency requires we do at least this much for ourselves. Unless we stop shunning the truth, we will not win this ideological war.
Steve Bannon calls Biden “the illegitimate president” over and over and over.
It would be nice to see every conservative use that same term.
I stopped listening to his podcast the day he began equivocating and dissembling because of obvious pressure from FOX and one of his sponsors (I forget who, so I don’t want to guess and be wrong.)
It’s funny what money will do to some people…
There is more dis…and mis-information coming from “main stream news outlets” than from anywhere at the direction of our government…more faulty science coming from CDC, WHO, NIH and big pharma than from anywhere else. There is more faulty and contrived intelligence coming from the 4th Branch than from all the alternative investigators we have. There is more actual voter suppression coming from our National Legislature than from the various states that make this a “union”. We are witnessing the “Killing of America” in real time, the unraveling of our justice system, the death of our economy, as our Constitutional Rights are slowly but surely taken from us. I do not see a way out, no white horses on the horizon. When the Russians said they would destroy us from within, they laughed. When McCarthy saw a commie behind every tree…they all laughed and called him a whacko. When Ross Perot warned of the “sucking sound of American jobs leaving the country after NAFTA, they laughed and called him looney….when Ron Paul warned of the dangers of fiscal irresponsibility, they laughed and called him a conspiracy theorist and kept borrowing money. And when Ronnie Reagan warned “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction”, they said he’s a cowboy actor with dementia, what does he know?
And now here we sit…losing at every turn. We have met the enemy and…..he is us.
Have faith….2 percent of them, and we have 300 million protectors! Reminds, I need to order more.
I’m encouraged. Pogo lives.
Indeed!
WHERE ARE OUR REPUBLICAN SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES?
CRICKETS
THIS IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL
AND THEY DO NOTHING FOR US?
you are So Right, Mama.
McConnell and McCarthy are, IMO, several of the Worst Politicians in my 72 years–aided and abetted by the squishy milque-toasted elected RINOs who make them their “leaders”.
Support anti-establishment candidates .
Hey! We will get a letter written up soon asking for donations to “fight against the system” very soon.
I even got one from Lyin’ Ted this week!! The nerve. I told him that I wouldn’t whiz on him if he was on fire. The only politicians that I have donated to in the last 12 months are MTG and Rand Paul.
Absolutely. That is the dog that didn’t bark in the night. How can so few see that????
Until conservatives awaken and realize that the R party is a corrupt appendage of the liberal uniparty and can’t be saved, we are destined to repeat this cycle until they destroy us completely. Either we start a new conservative party, with a solid conservative message, which holds its politicians absolutely accountable or we perish. There is no other way.
Have you looked into becoming a committee member for the gop so you can have a say about who gets on ballots? Put your time and money where your mouth is!
At the risk of a fed post, we need to start taking out the towers that bring mainstream media trash and lies into our communities.
Normally I would laugh and sympathize, however, at my age and in today’s world of deceit and mistrust I have to ask: Is that you Ray?? Is a prostitute really exempt from prosecution if they ask: Are you a cop?
I sincerely hope nothing happens to The Last Refuge. It’s the only “news” I trust anymore so I don’t even bother to listen to any of the others. My TV remains silent except for the cooking shows. No Cable since 2016-17.
Agree
I’m going to make a donation to CTH tomorrow. Maybe Sundance can use it to remain available to us. Losing CTH would be like losing my last friend.
Dixie THANK YOU if more of us treepers made a monthly commitment to C.T.H it would be one less thing Sundance would have to deal with prayers for you and yours R.D.
The Joy of Hallmark.
I agree. They have our email addresses. I have to believe SD et al have a plan.
It was dropped from Liberty’s Top twenty conservative sites in 2022. I don’t know why it is better than most. They left the Gateway Pundit.
None here since 1990.
Add The Burning Platform to your list of reliable sources
You might not see it now, but in a few years, I can see Joe Rogan running for President.
Don’t see it in anybody who thought O was our best president and wants Mike to run in 2024. He said it. I heard it.
FBI is working on some entrapment to arrest the people at Rumble. I wonder what hoax they will come up with this time. Whose door is about to the busted at 4am? What innocent political opposition will go to solitary confident next?
Satanic communists took over and it’s what they do.
The only thing that will stop the Gestapo tactics is hot lead waiting for them on the other side of the door. Let’s see if these thugs want to die for their masters
I hope those targeted fight back. Innocent people should not go jail willingly. Fight!
Sorry but early on when Trump supporters/conservatives started getting censored by Twitter and Facebook, Danny boy pulled the old liberatarian line about the free market would handle things. Conservatives should just buck up and create their own platforms.
Oh well.
Did you miss the rumble reference? He did exactly what he said we should do.
Gab
Yes, Gab does NOT censor.
And it does not get the respect (or shout outs) it deserves from those who should be championing it.
Sonya, then you understand why Dan stayed on the platform….or no?
One thing I will say about Rumble that I find annoying, is getting their imbed function to work whenever trying to share a video, as opposed to YouTube where they simplified it by just one click. If Rumble fixed this one aspect of their platform, they would easily start gaining market share and eating away at YouTube’s dominance. Why are conservative media sites that lean right always slow to react and adapt?
I cannot find replies to my comments on Rumble, so I cannot have conversations like on YT. Notifications link me back to the responder’s channel, not to their response!
Yeah I know what you mean, I try not to get too involved with a video platforms comment section only on occasion I may comment on something I find interesting. Rumble is a good option in terms of being on the right side, but dam, its always complicated trying to get their videos to work whenever I am trying to share them with other sites. Some sites work some don’t but I don’t have this problem with YouTube. They really need to fix this so it makes it easier for users to share their videos. I guess the comment section is another thing they could fix as well, that would help increase the traffic to their platform even more!
The free market IS handling thanks to people like Dan putting his money where his mouth is. You might consider giving your mouth a pause before running it in such an ill informed way
BitterC, Let’s not attack each other. The free market handling of this issue would be effective if all conservatives had stopped using the Libs platforms…like FB, Twitter and Instagram in the beginning of the cancellation purge. I quit them all when they banned the sitting POTUS. Every time you click on a Twitter link you are monetizing them and fueling their machine with data streams.
It’s time we all start calling them what they are: State controlled media.
That sets the tone for the right conversations about it.
The deep state is satanic.
First Amendments Rights are being trampled. It’s sedition.
Sleepy is getting media to do his dirty work.
Yes, and that makes the media state actors, opening them up for lawsuits for trampling our free speech rights.
They know Rogan reaches a lot of younger folks with his show. The episode with Dr. Malone probably “woke” some of the sheep up. Too many holes in the dam and not enough fingers!
I dumped twitter and facebook years ago. Like Gab and of course The Treehouse.
Try Telegram. I love it. I don’t use Gab and rarely Rumble. But I don’t miss Telegram for my info.
Most civilized people understand the concept of implicit bargains: you do for me, I do for you.
The big corporations now think they are driving hard for a hoop called corporatism, where big government and big corporations are intimate partners.
Clearly, the big corporations are wrong. Corporatism, in the end, will fail.
The corporations are living out, on a huge scale, the parable of the scorpion and the frog. The frog promised to give the scorpion a ride across the river. The scorpion promised not to sting the frog, because then both animals would die. Halfway across, the scorpion stung the frog. “Why?” asked the frog “Now we both will drown!”
“I’m a scorpion. It’s what I do”.
Marxism always fails. The Marxists have now embraced nihilism and anarchism. America is awful because there was slavery long ago. Good enough excuse. So let’s tear it all down. Perhaps, by magic, some utopia will appear. That’s it, that’s all they’ve got. You embrace their entire mad ideology or not. You cannot compromise or make implicit bargains with such mad men.
The government has the gun and the club. The government has the jails. Biden said early on that the gun owners were no threat to him unless they had F-15s and nuclear weapons. Senile or not, Biden understands power politics, at the ultimate extreme. Our coddled and sequestered business leaders do not understand power politics on this level. Corporatism will fail, and then America enters a very dark night (Biden’s winter of death?).
Media shutdown is the scratch beneath the scratch, hardly the itch. Anyone requiring yet more mediated information –from ANY platform– has forgone action for just more couch potatoin’.
In order to keep the collapse of our Republic on a relatively tame ‘war of information’ footing, thus retaining it as a media football where only ratings get hurt, Patriots must lie to themselves that the time for action has still not arrived. On TV, Godot always promises to show up manana. Don’t worry Ma, I’m only bleeding out of 3 amputated limbs. Wait til you read my typed comeback. Or as they like to say in TVLand…don’t touch that dial. We’ll be right back.
Bongino et al love this sh*t as it makes them look party to a real resistance. Talking Head nirvana.
I used to enjoy the occasional sparring with my progressive cousin on facebook until they started labeling my posts or shares. What is a social media platform if not your public “political” face? One cannot share truth on any platform that has its own truth and censors all others. In the end, there can be only one truth. The trouble is figuring it out and convincing others. I quit facebook. Leave it to the women to share family photos and recipes, about all it is good for. Not much of a social media fan to begin with and have other accounts but, never use them anymore. Much like voting, a site with integrity could shed light on people and trends. Without integrity information is useless except as propaganda.
Pretty soon ISPs will be told to not carry Breitbart, CTH, American Thinker, TGP, Revolver, Townhall, etc.
Starlink need to be operational soon.
I paid over a year ago…I pray every time they send a rocket up that it is my area!
This is the only response that they will understand: If you have Direct TV you must respond like this: I am Discontinuing DIRECTV due to your censorship of media you might not agree with. May your stock follow Twitter, CNN and MSNBC. And for all of you still using FB, Twitter.///etc…..well shame on you.
And cancel your ATT Internet and cell phone plans with the same letter. It isn’t just DirecTV.
Some people are required to use FB, Twit, etc., for monitoring due to their jobs. I never would have been on FB if I wasn’t forced by a regulator…makes one wonder, doesn’t it? My privacy has been invaded all this time because of them….
Trump Media has merged with Rumble.
February 15th is the anticipated rollout. He may announce it at his AZ rally tonight.
I see Dan’s still sugarcoating it … 😉
Gotta love him…
If the masks “work” why aren’t they working?
The same reason why my parents didn’t teach me to wear a mask during flu season because…..
Their parents didn’t teach them.
And they lived through the Spanish Flu…..where they saw first hand how effective they were.
This will be so awesome. Big tech is creating a powerhouse lineup for the Trump Media Acquisition Group. Success!
Great article but I cringed when the link led me to the NeoCONN website “the hill” (lower case intentional). If we could all absolutely bail on Twitter and FB and the other lying media sources we all gripe about, maybe we can actually make them respect the truth?
Now that these companies are overtly acting as agents of the government, they can be sued for constitutional violations, right? That whole “They’re private companies and can do what they want” doesn’t apply anymore, does it?
Today, state TV (aka ‘scripts’ propaganda) is telling unvaccinated pregnant woman that covid will likely kill their babies.
Big tech is used to being on its’ knees, so this cums easy for them…
If only we had an “opposition” party in DC who would agressively take on the destructive policies of the New Communist People’s Democrat Party. As our Constitution prohibits the Federal Government from restriction our Freedom Of Speech, and there is an obvious, proclaimed, direct relationship between the Administration and the Press (a CONSPIRACY) whereby Big Tech does for them what they cannot do, this Conspiracy to subvert the Rule of Law should be attacked by bringing lawsuit(s) against the Perps. The “supreme” Court could then be put on The Spot to rule with We The People or against the great American Experiment.
But, no, the Republican office-holders select McConnel and McCarthy as their “Leaders” (a Globalist whose immediate family takes $Millions from the Communist Chinese Government and his Toady) and do nothing but eat soft cheese and drink white wine while the mayhem funs rampant.
We must support MAGA candidates to reform the Congressional Branch and re-elect Trump to continue what he started.
Turns out the Internet is a great big place, with virtually no barriers to entry for people who are both quite eager and quite able to take your customers away from you.
Many of these self-styled “tech giants” simply had it good for a long time … too good. Such that now they are shooting themselves in the foot. You’d better keep in mind that a video can be hosted anywhere, and that even “IRC = Internet Relay Chat” is still very much out there. There’s nothing special about you – nothing exclusive nor proprietary. Always another competitor ready to steal your thunder … for keeps. You won’t get your marbles back.
“Don’t allow yourself to be hoodwinked by the enemy, who sees the things that are and speaks to them as though they are not. Don’t get taken in by that. You can do this thing. Have I not been with you? Have I not proven Myself? ” Word of the Lord given thru Graham Cooke
GREAT RESPONSE Andrew!
Gab’s Response to the Washington Post aka The Gang Responds To The Bezos Blog

He links to 50+ candidates for Congress if anyone wants to link to them as well:
https://news.gab.com/2022/01/06/meet-the-2022-candidates-who-are-on-gab
Show ’em some love.
Actually, not just running for Congress, but many other positions as well.
ATT/Direct TV has cancelled OAN for false information. I cancelled Direct tv in favor of OAN subscription long ago lol.
The good thing is now they have no reason to tone down their message to appease the FB censors. I hope that President Trump produces a platform that we all unite on.
the “theory” of masks isn’t questionable IF you are honest and objective.
for example: doctors WEAR masks when close up surgery and other care when there is a risk of infection (both ways, btw!).
The theory is based on simplicity: not perfect but good enough to control “some” transmission/re-transmission”
The theory is essentially this for viral transmission: most viral loads of highest density are carried in tiny droplets of human sputum and spit. If you’ve ever seen the high speed video WITH black light (UVA/B) you can actually SEE these tiny droplets that get exhaled and they stay aloft for quite some time. In the same videos, a mask will significantly reduce the amount of this tiny airborne droplets.
Thus, in theory, masks provide “some protection”.
But here is where the entire theory goes flat AND is meaningless. And this is where Bongino AND MANY OTHERS INCLUDING SCIENTISTS understand the limits and also the reality of cc19 virus transmission.
Bongino scores an accurate and scientifically valid point of view. Masks are unlikely to hold any power in mitigating the spread of the virus. There is no valid scientific method that can measure the effectiveness. The ONLY basis of masks is based in theory and only then in pristine controlled laboratory conditions. In the real world, these theories are disconnected from the obvious: this virus circulated globally in record time and continues to do so, regardless of theoretical guessing.
Bongino (and many others) are simply stating facts that are inconvenient to the regulations and mandates and stupid policies of “official” statements by this administration.
None of this should be controversial. Anyone with half interest in actually learning anything from this pandemic experience would be inclined to question masks.
This is ABOUT CONTROL. Censorship of “wrong thought”.
Nothing to do with science. Nothing to do with reality.
This administration abandoned all credibility and the social media and tech firms who cling to batshitcrazy.
God Bless America

Who can be trusted anymore??
Glad they put the names of the 270 so called health care and Doctors out there. Nuremberg 2.0 is not far off.
Thanks for the starting point.
